US Hypersonic Missile Test Fails Again by AldrichAmes: 9:24am On Jun 30, 2022 |
A flight test of a hypersonic missile system in Hawaii ended in failure due to a problem that took place after ignition, the Department of Defense said, delivering a fresh blow to a program that has suffered stumbles. It didn’t provide further details of what took place in the Wednesday test, but said in a statement sent by email “the Department remains confident that it is on track to field offensive and defensive hypersonic capabilities on target dates beginning in the early 2020s.” An anomaly occurred following ignition of the test asset,” Pentagon spokesman Navy Lieutenant Commander Tim Gorman said in the statement. “Program officials have initiated a review to determine the cause to inform future tests.” he said. “While the Department was unable to collect data on the entirety of the planned flight profile, the information gathered from this event will provide vital insights.” The trial marked the second unsuccessful test flight of the prototype weapon known as Conventional Prompt Strike. There was a booster failure in its first flight test in October, which prevented the missile from leaving the launch pad. The Conventional Prompt Strike weapon is envisioned to be installed on Zumwalt destroyers and Virginia-class submarines. The Army is developing a land-based version. Lockheed Martin Corp and Northrop Grumman Corp are the top contractors. The Pentagon is feeling pressure to deploy hypersonic systems as rivals including Russia, China and North Korea are pressing ahead with the systems designed to evade interception by flying at more than five times the speed of sound and gliding on a maneuverable path to deliver nuclear warheads. China is investing heavily in hypersonic weapons, putting one in orbit in July of last year that flew 25,000 miles (40,000 kilometers) in more than 100 minutes of flight, according to the top US nuclear commander. In January, North Korea conducted two separate launches of hypersonic missile systems that traveled several hundred kilometers. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-06-30/us-hypersonic-missile-fails-in-test-in-fresh-setback-for-program 1 Like |

Russia, China and North Korea have successfully tested hypersonic missiles. And Russia has used them in Ukraine. However, the US & its trillion dollar military budget can’t get it right, even with all the scientists they stole from other countries, lol. 22 Likes 1 Share |

For those who care to know.- The development of the first Nuclear "atomic" bomb, that the US brags about, can be wholly attributed to "Nazi scientist" (who were granted amnesty) and USSR scientists that defected to the US. The UK is hoping for same. 14 Likes |

This is like the 150th failure. Americans are truly useless. Imagine spending billions on the research of a weapons only for it to end up being a massive failure. Meanwhile the Russians achieved success in the same weapon research with lesser budget and time frame. Americans are very overrated shitheads. If not the stolen scientists, they would've been on par with us in terms of tech Meanwhile, God bless Vladimir Putin-dono. My mentor! 22 Likes 1 Share |

No wonder Boris is looking for Russia scientists up and down. I’m not even surprised when South Korea, a very big USA allied went to Russia for help on their anti ships, and air defence missiles was when I knew that USA are not good with Rocket science. Most of NAZI scientists were moved to USA to help USA government and USSR moved some to USSR to help them too. India, China, Iran and NK all built their missiles on Russia and USSR technology. 11 Likes 1 Share |

Italian magazine "Panorama"!! Four months after the start of the war in Ukraine, Putin's rule has not suffered. The sanctions fall on those who proclaimed them, with the crisis of energy & raw materials. "And the whole West is no longer at the center of the world. My Motto from day one as always been "Whosoever have Oil, Gas, Diamond, wheat and Woods controls everything, even if you have all the money, the person can stop selling to you and yet our Africa leaders failed to see something like this". We have it all but have useless leaders Even Poland have paid over €5B to Russia for oil and gas, so much of Ukraine solidarity 8 Likes

BritishNaija: In a conflict with a competent military like mother russia or China, the USA would lose all its aircraft carriers in just the first week of the war. Meanwhile aircrafts are pretty useless long range weapons because they will run out of fuel before reaching their targets if the target is thousands of kilometers away from the border of the aurcraft operator. Ofcourse there are aircrafts too that refuel fighter jets mid air. But like heavy bombers, they're slow and big meaning even the most shitty SAM could take them down in one go, not to even talk about S300, S400 and other proven SAM batteries. That USA you keep seeing displaying their aircraft carriers, military hardwares and troops in glossy uniforms. Wait till you see them fight an actual competent enemy without nukes. The world realize how vulnerable they are. There is a reason why they keep shying away from engaging mother russia physically in a fight, despite according to western media's, they have more than 20 allies in NATO hence would steamroll russia or China. Their leaders may be useless but I'm sure they're not delusional enough to agree with this common superstition. 8 Likes |

Svlla:Do you remembered many of them making noises that if Russia attacked Ukraine, USA and NATO will rain bombs on Russia and even British sent troops to Ukraine but immediately their master(USA) said no USA troops will dead for Ukraine. British and Poland quickly remove their troops. That’s how the British did in Syria until USA withdraw and hand over those bases to Russia because the USA knew only Russia can stop the Turks military campaign. Anyone who followed Syria war should have knew that Russia and USA will never attack each other as the USA have more to lose than Russia. A WW3 will break both China, Russia and USA into small countries including Germany and France. 7 Likes |

Svlla: They're just not good with missile and rocket technology. Even way back to their face off with the soviet union.. They always researched aircrafts while the USSR went with ballistic and cruise missiles. Then, they had the advantage because missiles were less accurate and without Intel, you couldn't locate and take out targerts compared to aircrafts that could enter enemy territory with instruction to take out any target seen in the environments. Also, then, SAM'S were almost non existent then. Countries relied on those mounted AA weapons which weren't really impressive. Now is it even possible for an aircraft to entire the territory of another country with competent Sam batteries and expect to not be shot down? I think it's suicidal. If you're not taken down by Long SAM'S, then Short SAM'S are there too. If not that there are still MANPADS and truck mounted AA's. Some believe the claims of the USA and lapdogs that F-35 and F-22 are stealthy against all raders. I asked one us military officer on reddit sometime ago, about this, and his reply was that he's not really sure because they've not had the opportunity to observe Russian high tech raders. Nonetheless, F-22 and F-35 are ABSOLUTELY not stealthy again early warning rader systems. These are raders that alarm border defence corps of breaches by other country aircrafts. Then in responds, they send their own interceptor aircrafts over them... So my brother, if a long range SAM doesn't take down enemy aircrafts, then a short one would or even a manpad or the aircrafts of the attacked country itself. Meanwhile, missiles on the other hand are getting better and better. They fly faster. Can carry decoys, and fly lower for the cruise missiles. Russia already has numerous high tech missiles compared to the USA. Iskander ballistic missile is there for short range. Yars-24 and sarmat are there for long range. Bulava is there for medium range (I think even unlimited since it's submarine based). All hypersonic. Cruise milssiles na he even plenty pass including the hypersonic ones Meanwhile, the only competent missiles I can really acknowledge in the arsenal of USA are minuteman for ballistic and Tomahawk fir cruise which both ofcourse lags miles behind the ones russia possesses in terms of range, speed, blast yield and overall capability. Russia knows that USA has the advantage in aircraft which is why she has invested in Sam's. Meanwhile, what has the USA got to defend against Russian ICBM's and ship based hypersonic missiles? Na THAAD? I laugh Even military.com a us owned military site has said it would take just 10 Russian hypersonic missile to sink the most advanced us aircraft carrier which is the USS Gerald. Meaning it could take less for the less advanced ones. 12 Likes |
